37x13.50r17 Nitto Ridge Grappler Road Noise

[PuRGE]

So, I originally wanted 12.50, but couldn't find them anywhere & ended up sticking with 13.50 out of convenience, wider looking stance, & greater ground contact when aired down & off-road. I know that there's naturally going to be increased road noise anytime you go up with tire size & weight as well as air being pushed & compressed between the deeper tread, but is anyone else experiencing a mid to high humming noise with these tires? Seems like I've got to turn up the radio a bit more than normal to make things more tolerable. Everything I've heard about them say that they're better with noise vs other brands, but I'm starting to wonder.

I had the nittos rg’s in 35’s and 37x12.5’s… even in a metric 285 on 17’s… yep… you got the rg howl. Unfortunately yes due to the more aggressive tread. My 37’s did quiet down after a bit of driving but when they got to 50% tread… yep…. Definitely loud loud loud.

sorry man. … but they still a great tire.

good luck
